All my babies are now 9th level kyu in Shin Shin Toitsu Aikido. Okay, it might not be 6th dan Steven Segal shite, but it's still damn WIKKID stuff

MMMM thankyou, but ya know, *I* had nothing to do with it.
This is somthing only THEY can do, only THEY can succeede at. This is ALL them.
2 of 5, the 9 year old, burst into tears when the Sensei announced that he was granting the boy the "rank of.....". That boy worked SO hard and it meant SO much to him....T'was another of those "mommy momnets"

You've got some fantastic kids there, my dear!

Fantastic!

I've strongly recommended Aikido to another mom - especially after I heard how well it's working for Gabe.

Congrats to the wee ones. Give them a big hug from me until I get over there to do it myself.
